I worked with Dave over 20 years ago at Longaberger when he was the Safety Coordinator and got to chat with him on a regular basis. I haven't saw him in years but remember some of our conversations and always enjoyed conversing with him. It's amazing the people that can come and go out of a person's life but the one's that leave enough of an impression on you that you feel compelled to comment on their Guest Book. : )

To this day, I periodically tell people how, back in 1969, you bought a GTO similar to mine. You were working at the corner Gulf Station (Shelby, OH), and every night after work, we drove over to the Leaning Tower of Pizza (Mannsfield, OH) for late night eats. We had quite a streak going, over 100 nights in a row. It was during this time that Joe Hess (Tower owner) tagged me with "Shelby John." That is how it remained through all these years, even with the current crop of Tower folks. I can't get a Tower sub without thinking of my old buddy Dave.
My sincere condolences to all of Dave's family!!

So sorry for your loss. David was my cousin and I remember lots of time spent together when we were young. Your cousins in PA are thinking about you all and praying for you. David was very proud of his children and grandchildren. Love and Prayers. Debbie and Paul Smith.
We always enjoyed basketball seasons and Gus Mackers with Dave and “Cheese!” We especially enjoyed the Michigan and Cambridge trips. Dave was a great guy—often serious, often hilarious—who always made his children his top priority! May your many happy memories help you through this difficult time. Our hearts are with you and your families, Tyler and Allison.
Tyler,. Sorry for your loss...sending prayers to you and the family
So sorry to hear this dave was such a nice person.
So sorry for your loss. Sending prayers for his family.
Hallelujah, Dave! No more suffering from Parkinson! You have won the battle and are now enjoying a perfect life in Heaven.
I met David Alexander at Longaberger while working there for one year in 2001. I was impressed by his sense of humor and his intelligence; what a smart man! I then met him again when his son (Tyler) and my son (Aaron) started playing basketball together. What good times (5th grade thru 8th grade)! I don’t think Dave ever missed a game; so proud of his son!
Dave was diagnosed with Parkinson’s around that time and ever since had proved himself to be a man of resilience; never giving up and doing everything he could to battle that evil disease.
I’m so ashamed that I did not keep in touch with Dave. Other than being on my prayer list, he hasn’t entered my mind recently until I saw his obituary Tuesday morning. I saw him a couple times when I delivered Christmas cookies to him, but then along came COVID. I did see him and speak briefly with him at church (Meadowview) when he was there with his daughter and grandsons.
It was an honor to know you, Dave. “Go rest high on that mountain. Son, your work on earth is done. Go to heaven a shoutin’, love for the Father and the Son.” Vince Gill
